Gameplay:
- ”NEW” Teleporter Room change terminals are back
- (For never players: every third room you can choose to reduce difficulty, or increase with a chance for a special room quest or event)
- Room events have a 5% chance regardless if teleporter terminal was used
- Bonus Terminal chance in Military bay or beyond is now higher than usual (10 > 17%)
- This means more (Wep, Item, Wep upgrade, Item upgrade) Terminal spawns

- Timed chests no longer grant less time to open depending on difficulty
- Defense Events spawn timers scale less with terror level
- Upgradekit chance slightly reduced

Bosses:
- Bosses now always drop an upgrade kit
- Bosses in coop now always use the reactive plating modifier instead of desynced ones+
- Jet boss now uses Fusion ammo as intended not Ion cannon ammo (bug from Update 24)
- Jet boss movement speed now scales less with the speed boss modifier, and follow speed minimally reduced 282 > 276 (Remember you are slower when shooting, just run)
- Unstable Mass (Blob) base health regen reduced from 100 to 75
- Arena Masters Bossfight Unit health now scales with terror level as any other Boss (0.5x) but capped to 2x hp - we all know they were very easy
Classes:
- Assassin level 15 bonus luck removed
- Assassin level 15 perk added: Knife backstabs steal credits and add a tiny speed boost
- (has a 7% chance to steal 10x the credits)
- Assassin just has too much of everything, dodge, crit, headshot damage, pistol damage, critical damage, elite damage, 5° deviation off off all weapons, status effect damage and 40% luck, cant take more than 350 damage - thats just too much stats
- The new effect pushes more for dagger usage and is more engaging
- Assassin has 50 more shield, shield regen slowed down
- This will make the class play more than they should - hit hard and run with a downtime
- The old assassin shield was more of a “in combat all the time” which is basically the opposite than the rest of the class design

- Riotguard moves a little bit faster now
- Riotguard gains a bit more extra speed in bossrooms now

- The opposite of the Rogue classes change, a fast shield that fits the constant fighting
- of the riot guard better
- Riotguard no longer starts with 100 extra hp due to already having painkillers doing the same
- Riotguard now deals 5% more damage with Pistols, Shotguns, SMGs
- Plasma Grenade now melts together plating for bonus damage like plasma weapons
- Raider now gains 100/150/200 shields when picking up non dogtags as well (from hotfix)
- Heavy gunner level 25 now improves the onslaught system (gives item exp that will lead to power increase)
- Demolisher and assassin max damage taken benefits are now higher in hyper adrenaline mode (450>1000, 350>900) as they basically break the game mode, (HA increases damage taken by 3x so this is still amazing value)
- Missile drone damage gain per recycling is now 5% - now shows damage bonus in tooltip
Weapons:
- Flamethrower damage was incorrectly way too high, still is far better than pre U24 now
- Ion Cannon damage slightly increased, magsize from 5 > 7
- Tec9 first shot reset time slightly increased (means a bit slower firerate for high accurate taps)
- Apollon LMG magsize 45 > 50
- RPK damage from 0.93 to 1.05
